A correspondent of the GAZETTE of
Yesterday charges me with 'perfidy''
10y reason of my vote on the bill to
abolish the office of governor.
The candidates elected in Honolulu
were committed to the principle that
all unnecessary offices in the govern

salaries be curtailed.'

Neumann has laid himself open to
severe censure.
Honolulu, Nov. 18th, 1887.
November 23rd. 1851.

Since writing the above we have,
at the request of the respondent,
given him rehearing for the pur-
pose of obtaining the evidence of
Mr.. Berger, and we have also had
the benefit of the argument of Mr..
AS. Hartwell on behalf of the res
pondent.
We can come to no other conclu-
sion than that Mr.. Neumann must
be considered as in one of two atti-
tudes-either he was ignorant of the
peril to his clients insurance claim
when he disclosed the fact of the
assignment to Mr.. Berger, or he be-
trayed his clients case with the in
tention of injuring him. We can
not accept the latter alternative,
because there is no proof of any col
fusion between him and Mr.. Berger.
Mr.. Berger's testimony is to the
effect that when Mr.. Neumann told
him of the bill of sale of MichiePs
whole stock of goods to Mr.. Whit
ing for the consideration of 81, and
which Mr.. Neumann commented
upon as a reason why Michiels
would have no motive for destroy
ing this property by fire, it being no
longer his, he Berger, Immediately
seized upon it as being defence to
to the action to recover the insurance,
but that he was careful not to make
Mr.. Neumann aware of this view.
He also studiously avoided letting
Mr.. Michiels know that he had this
in mind when he conYersed with
him about his proof of loss and in
the negotiations for compromise,
although Michiels freely admitted
to him the facts in reference to the
assignment. This would disprove
all suggestion of collision between
Berger and Neumann.
We are therefore forced to the
conclusion that the disclosure by Mr..
Neumann to Mr.. Berger was done
with such ignorance of the law as
also to require the deliberate censure
of the Court which is hereby ex-
pressed.

j. \. HOPPER VS.. W. C. PARKE EFT
AL, ASSIGNEEs OF y. AMIN, A
BANKRUPT.

BEFORE JUDD, c. j., M'CULLY j., PRESTON j.,
BICKERToN ].
Opinion OF the Court Jy BICKERTON J.
This matter comes here on a sub
mission of facts agreed upon by the
parties hereto as follows:
l. That on October 10, 1885, said
Hopper loaned to said Amin the sum
of 81 800, and took from him a note
payable on demand for that amount
with interest at the rate of one per
cent. a month until paid, which note
was endorsed by Conchee & Ahung,
a copy whereof is hereunto annexed
and made a part hereof marked
3" Exhibit A."
.. That mortgage to secure said
note was given by said Amin to said
Hopper upon four shares of certain
rice plantation at Waialua, Oahu,
dated June "A, 1886, of record in
Liber 102, folio 168; which mort
gage is here in Court to be produced
as part hereof.
3. That said note has not been
paid and the endorsers are insolYent
as far as known to the parties hereto.
4. That one Ahuna, partner of
said Amin, died in the year 1886
and S. Selig of Honolulu, was duly
appointed administrator of his estate:
that said Selig was also appointed
receiver of the partnership of Amin
& Ahuna.
). That on February 8, 1887, said
Amin gave to said Hopper an order
on said Seig receiver for the amount
due to him from the partnership
property when settled, which order
was accepted by said Selig, copy
whereof is hereunto annexed and
made a part hereof marked ''Exhibit
B." said Selig at that time having
moneys or credits of said firm in his
hands.
6. That on April ,, 1887, said
Amin was adjudged bankrupt and
said Parke and Austin were duly
assignees of his estate.
Z. That said Selig on May 9, 1887,
having in hands the sum of 81 ,667.30
belonging TO said Amin the proceeds
of property coming into his hands
as receiver, paid the same to the
Clerk of the Supreme Court, acting
under direction of the Court; that
said money was afterwards paid by
said Clerk to said assignees.
The question to be decided by the
Court is, should said sum of 81, 667.3O
be now paid to said Hopper in virtue
of the above facts, after deducting
such amounts for commissions of
assignees and costs in bankruptcy as
may be allowed?
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1887-12-06

1t appears that the said Hopper
held Anin's note secured by mort
gage on four shares of certain rice
plantation, which said shares were
sold by S. Selig as receiver in closing
up the estate of Amin & Ahuna, he
having the proceeds of this security
in his hands on February 8, 1887, Y.
Amin gave an order on said Selig
payable to Hopper as follows:
"Honolulu, Feb. 8, 1887.
"Please pay to the order of James
ga. Hopper the amount due to me
s:from the partnership property of
ssAnin and Ahuna, and when the
ssmatter is settled and the amount
'saseertained definitely, please rem
